No. No. No. First of all, not a guy. Second, I don’t buy into that its-your-fault-you-got-drunk-around-a-dude-you-should’ve-expected-to-get-raped bullshit either. I do, however, think it’s important to feminism for women to stop playing this victim crap. She said he coerced her over a number of weeks. If she felt…
This is amazing.
I’m explaining what I think his argument is, not agreeing with it. I’m not defending him at all.
I think his argument is that he had consensual sex with a woman and that she “changed her mind” and reported him for assault, and instead of approaching the matter “objectively,” they unfairly chose to believe the female victim and kangaroo-courted him because of said “pro-female, anti-male” bias. I.E., they only…
Way to go NBC. Nothing says #merica like asking the host country to reorganize things for us in our language.
If Deadspin’s gonna report on Spanish-language stories, it’d be cool if you guys had someone on staff who can speak the language instead of using Google Translate and secondhand accounts. It’s come up before in soccer articles, but this is an especially weird example. It’s not like this is a bad article or anything,…
“Robin needs to go into the front office, get put into a headlock and get savagely beaten for us.”
The sheer goddamned privilege of anyone who is considering NOT voting for Clinton* is just melting my fucking brain right now. You have a blanket opposition to war? I bet you’re not Jewish. You don’t care about what the RNC and DNC platforms say about gay marriage? I bet you’ve never tried to visit your partner in the…
I don’t care too much about either Beyoncé or Pokemon.
there are dozens of locations that can host the Olympics right now, and they are ignored because either a country wants the prestige of the games to overshadow their lousy human rights records or the cities refuse to spend billions when the facilities they already have are quite adequate.
I did a lot of stupid things as a 17-19 year old. None of them involved murdering someone with my crazy cult buddies. Most people would never do that, under any provocation.
So we are forgiving people who do things when they are drunk now. If he bitched slapped Amber would we forgive that?
My wife and I kept making the mistake of banging on valentine’s day so we have two kids each born within a week of christmas.
Kids don’t like Europe. Kids like rollercoasters. Send them to Disney with a babysitter and you can go compare Whole Foods lines in different European metropolises. Snore.
Answer to b) Sort of. It’s worth it, though.
There’s nothing wrong with telling people to be socially responsible about their life choices.
If some writer chooses to lionize someone for doing something I consider to be insanely unwise, I’m entitled to comment on it. I didn’t suggest that I should have control over her reproduction, just that her choices are killing the planet at an accelerated rate, and that is nothing that anyone should be lionizing her…
Honest to God, I just can’t figure out how the whole child/spousal support thing works. When I got divorced, my ex-husband was making (no-kidding) 10x as much as I was. With 50/50 custody, he only gave me $500 a month. It took me 10 years to get out of the debt I accrued trying to make ends meet. When my best friend…
